Sebastian P. Bartos
In the regional duchies of high medieval Poland, ideological aspects of the piety associated with holy men and women directly affected the hierarchical model of public authority. As active political brokers, the bishops of Cracow assertively operated to formalize, control, and utilize the cult of saints for two main purposes: to buttress the post-Gregorian ideal of clerical leadership and to secure Cracow's primacy within the Polish hierarchical church. After the revolutionary accession of Casimir the Just to the principal Duchy of Cracow, the installation of the relics of an ancient Roman, Florian, in Cracow in 1184 emphasized the Gelasian principles of a harmonious government. Seven decades later, the canonization of the eleventh-century native Bishop Stanisław, martyred as a result of a conflict with his king, not only strengthened Cracow in its rivalry against the episcopal centers of Gniezno and Wrocław, which both lacked a comparable type of holy figure associated with their cathedrals but also served as a reminder of the ecclesiastical guardianship of just rulership. The relevance of clerical sacrifice in the name of a rejuvenated Polish monarchy reappeared in the early thirteenth century when a Piast duke was crowned king of Poland at the cathedral city sanctified by the episcopal cult of its prelate.
在中世纪波兰的地区公国,与神圣的男人和女人有关的虔诚的意识形态方面直接影响了公共权力的等级模式。作为活跃的政治掮客,克拉科夫的主教们积极地将圣徒崇拜正式化、控制和利用,主要有两个目的:一是支持后格列高利时期神职人员领导的理想,二是确保克拉科夫在波兰等级教会中的首要地位。在正义的卡西米尔(Casimir the Just)以革命的方式加入克拉科夫的主要公国之后,1184年在克拉科夫安置了古罗马人弗洛里安(Florian)的遗迹,强调了和谐政府的格拉西亚原则。七十年后,11世纪的本地主教Stanisław被封为圣徒,因为他与国王发生冲突而殉道,这不仅加强了克拉科夫与格涅兹诺和Wrocław的主教中心的竞争,这两个主教中心都缺乏与他们的大教堂相关的类似的神圣人物,而且还提醒人们教会对正义统治的监护。13世纪初,一位皮亚斯特公爵在主教的圣化仪式中被加冕为波兰国王,牧师以复兴波兰君主制的名义做出的牺牲再次出现。

This article examines the Cultural Revolution (1966–1976) as a history of trauma for Chinese Protestant intellectuals. Using Cai Yongchun—a graduate of Yenching and Columbia University—as an example, the article aims to 1) demonstrate the overwhelming conformity demanded by the Communist regime and 2) analyze how Christians like Cai sought to align with official lines through intellectual reconstruction. In sum, the party viewed Christian intellectuals as deeply suspect due to their religious and Western affiliations, thus targeting them in successive campaigns that began in the 1950s and culminated in the Cultural Revolution. Despite state marginalization, Christian intellectuals like Cai persisted in their patriotism, eager to remain relevant even amid ideological fanaticism. Active adaptation as such, however, facilitated the hegemonic project of revolutionary subject formation that championed the Communist leadership as the custodian of truth. Cai came to experience a fundamental and perpetual denial of the self, pressuring him to become an ever more faithful follower of Mao and his words. Nevertheless, the proletarian redemption proved elusive, and the old Christian identity resilient.
